Specializing in audio transcription and proofreading, I'm a Canadian administrative assistant with organizational, research, writing and editing skills. I'm a native English speaker with superior English grammar and communication skills. Thorough, detail-oriented and punctual, I'm a perfectionist with an excess of knowledge in domestic animal care, nutrition and welfare. A resident of Mexico, I also speak Mexican Spanish at approximately 85% fluency.
